Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

I'm not sure he has much choice. Supporting his family is a probably a condition of parole. If the attorney general or you files a motion to enforce child support, and his parole officer gets wind they may file a moiton to revoke parole.

The problem is, if he is in prison, he is not going to have any income from which to pay child support. Suggest you contact his parole officer.

Based on what you have written, it appears that you may be in between a rock and a hard place. Assuming that you do not have any current child support order from a court in effect currently, you child's father has an obligation to support his family -- it may even be a condition of his parole terms. If he violates his parole terms, then he may end up going back to jail an serving out the remaining portion of his time -- this may mean no child support received by your child. If you contact the attorney general's office and seek assistance with obtaining child support, they may contact your child's father's parole office -- again this may result in his return to jail and no child support for your child. You may want to consider speaking with a law firm to assist you in pursuing some form of child support for your child.
